Where's the extended cut for DVD??? February 5, 2009 Bill J. Thomann (Port Charlotte, Fl United States) 1 out of 6 found this review helpful
I know blu ray is the future but dvd still outsells it big time. I've been waiting since the original release for the extended cut of Da Vinci Code. PLEASE don't tell me you're only releasing it on blu ray. You are in the business of making money, aren't you?
Well, I'll Be A Knight's Templar January 28, 2009 D. Mikels (Skunk Holler) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I admit it. I'm one of the few. . .the proud. . .the brave. . .who has not read Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code. I generally eschew pop culture, which this book most certainly is, yet when I caught the film version of THE DA VINCI CODE on cable recently, I immediately was entertained. I knew bits and pieces of the story--the Holy Grail, the Knights Templar, the Apocrypha, a Vatican cover-up--so it didn't take much (a disturbing, very bizarre murder/mutilation) to get me hooked as this fast-paced thriller took off.
So because I had not read the book, I had no preconceived notions of main character Robert Langdon; accordingly, Tom Hanks was just fine--although his hair was kind of. . .odd. Hanks plays very well off the delightful Audrey Tautou, who in turn possesses a most euphonious accent (and is easy on the eye). Following the murder both Hanks and Tautou embark on a breathless journey through France and England--pursued by the police and a self-flagellating albino monk--in search of an artifact that, if found, could scandalize Christianity to its very ecclesiastical core. They are joined in the chase by an ornery Ian McKellen playing a colleague of Hanks and a self-proclaimed Holy Grail expert.
Through all the twists and turns this film reaches its inevitable over-the-top ending, yet it's all good religious fun. And through the viewing experience I learned about symbology, cryptology, the Priory, Da Vinci's 'The Last Supper', and a well-traveled sarcophagus--all without reading the book, mind you. Plus director Ron Howard has yet to make a dog; his THE DA VINCI CODE is certainly no exception to this noteworthy trend.

Nice. January 18, 2009 B. Elazier (Detroit, MI USA) 0 out of 7 found this review helpful
I didn't see it, it was for a friend. But I heard it was good.

The Bottom Line:
The DaVinci Code begins well enough, though the audience is asked to believe that upon being gutshot a character would use his own blood to leave cryptic clues for his pal Tom Hanks, but quickly gets bogged down in the endless machinations of the plot and ends up collapsing under its own weight--airtight this ain't.
